Publisher Description
A funny, twisted, deep, down, and decadent semi-autobiographical novel from noted jazz guitarist Barry Finnerty, set in New York City in 1994. "I took all the craziest stuff that I could remember that happened during my 25 years living, playing, struggling, and partying there," says Finnerty, "and condensed it all into a few months. Most of it is fictionalized, but certain parts - such as the experiences with Miles Davis, the Crusaders, the Brecker Bros, and Jaco Pastorius - actually did happen." Links to funny original songs, parodies, and actual videos and music recordings from the period enhance this jaded, yet highly entertaining and rollicking narrative.
